Safety

The safety aspects of this appliance comply with accepted

technical standards and IEC Standards. However, as the

manufacturer we also believe it is our responsibility to

familiarize you with the following safety instructions.

Electrical Safety

• The installation and connection of the new appliance must only be

carried out by qualified personnel.

• Repairs to the appliance are only to be carried out by approved

service persons. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons

may cause injury or serious malfunctioning. If your appliance

needs repairing, please contact your local Service Centre.

• This connection may be achieved by having the plug accessible or

by incorporation a switch in the fixed wiring in accordance with the

wiring rules.

Please follow these instructions, otherwise the warranty will not

cover any damage that may occur.

• Flush-mounted appliances may only be operated following

installation in suitable cabinets and workplaces which conform to

the relevant standards. This ensures sufficient protection against

electric shock as required by certification body.

• If your appliance malfunctions or fractures:

– switch off all cooking zones, and contact Service Center.

If the surface is cracked, switch off the appliance to avoid the

possibility of electric shock. Do not re-use your hob until the

glass surface has been changed.

When using Hob, never use aluminum foil, products wrapped in

aluminum foil, or deep frozen food in aluminum cookware.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the

manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in

order to avoid a hazard.

Child Safety

This appliance is not intended for use by young children or

infirm persons unless they have been adequately supervised by

a responsible person to ensure that they can use the appliance

safely.

Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not

play with the appliance.

WARNING: Accessible parts may become hot during use.

Young children should be kept away.

The cooking zones will become hot when you cook. Therefore,

always keep small children away from the appliance.

Safety During Use

• This appliance may only be used for normal cooking and frying in

the home. It is not designed for commercial or industrial purposes.

• Do not use the hob to heat the room.

• Take care when plugging in electric appliances near the hob.

Connection leads must not come into contact with the hot surface.

• Overheated fats and oils catch fire quickly. You should supervise

cooking when preparing foods in fat or oil.

• Switch off the cooking zones after use.

• Always keep the control panels clean and dry.

• Never place combustible items on the hob.

• You must not keep any combustible items aerosol cans in a

drawer located under the hob.

• The service cables from electrical appliances must not touch the

hot plates. This could cause damage to the hob and cable

insulation.

Safety

Safety When Cleaning

• Always switch off the appliance before cleaning.

• For safety reasons do not clean the appliance with a steam jet or

high pressure cleaner.

• Clean the hob in accordance with the maintenance and cleaning

instructions in this manual.

• Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to

clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface,

which may result in shattering of the glass.

How to avoid damage to the appliance

• Do not use the cooking area as a worktop or storage space.

• Please be careful the edges when moving pots and pans around.

• Do not have the cooking zones on with empty pans, or with no

pots or pans on them.

• Ceramic glass is very tough, and impervious to sharp temperature

changes, but is not unbreakable. It can be damaged if particularly

hard or sharp objects fall on to it.

• Be very cautious if using pots made of cast iron, or other pots with

rough edges or burrs. Moving these can cause scratches on

glass.

• If sugar or a mixture containing sugar falls onto a hot cooking

zone and melts, remove immediately, while still hot. If left to cool

down, it may damage the surface when removed.

Important: There is a risk of burning yourself when the glass

scraper is used on a hot cooking zone!

• Keep objects or materials liable to melt away from the ceramic

glass surface, for example, plastic utensils, aluminium foil, or

cooking wraps. If any other materials or foodstuffs have melted on

the ceramic glass surface, these should also be cleaned away

immediately.

Disposal of old appliances

Warning: Before disposing of old appliances please make them

inoperable so that they cannot be the source of danger.

To do this, have a qualified person disconnect the

appliance from the house circuitry.

To protect the environment, it is important that worn out appliances

are disposed of in the correct manner.

• The appliance must not be disposed of with household rubbish.

• You can obtain information about collection dates or public refuse

disposal sites from your local Council or Environmental Health

Office.

Note: Moisture coming from or appearing around Hob.

The moisture could be coming from the wood and hob when the

hob is operated initially or after long time of no operation.

This is not a fault with the Hob.

Suitable Kitchenware

Pots and pans

The better the pot, the better the cooking results.

• You can recognize good pots and pans by their bases. The base

should be as thick and flat as possible.

• When buying new pots and pans, pay particular attention to the

diameter of the base. Maunfacturers often only state the diameter

of the rim.

• Pots with aluminum, or copper bases can cause metallic

discolouring on the ceramic glass surface which is very difficult or

impossible to remove.

• Be very careful when using cast iron pots or pots with damaged

bases which are rough and or have burrs on them. Scratches can

occur if they are slid across the surface.

• When cold, pot bases are normally bowed slightly in wards

(concave). They should never be bowed outwards (convex).

• If you use special pots and pans (e.g., a pressure cooker,

simmering pan, wok etc.) please observe the manufacturer’s

instructions.

General information

• The base should always be clean and dry.

• In order to avoid ugly scratches on the ceramic glass cooking

surface, do not slide pots and pans around but lift them up instead

when changing positions.

• Scratches can result from grains of sand (e.g., after washing out

vegetables) which are dragged with the pot across the cooking

surface.

• Always use large pots for dishes with lots of liquid so that nothing

can boil over.

Tips on saving energy

You will save valuable energy by observing the following points:

• Always position pots and pans before you switch on the cooking

zone.

• Dirty cooking zones and pot bases increase the power

consumption.

• Whenever possible, always have the lid firmly placed on the pots

and pans so that they are completely covered.

• Switch off the cooking zones before the end of the cooking time to

use the residual heat for keeping food warm or for melting

purposes.

• The base of the pot should have the same size as the cooking

zone.

• Using a pressure cooker shortens the cooking times by up to 50%.

Light Soiling

1. Wipe the ceramic glass surface with a damp cloth and a little

cooktop cleaner.

2. Then rub dry with a clean cloth. Remnants of cleaner must not be

left on the surface.

3. Thoroughly clean the entire ceramic glass cooking surface once

a week with a commercially available ceramic glass or stainless

steel cleaner.

4. Then wipe the ceramic glass surface using plenty of clean water

and rub dry with a clean fluff-free cloth.

Stubborn Soiling

1. To remove food that has boiled over or stubborn splashes, use a

glass scraper.

2. Place the glass scraper at an angle to the ceramic glass surface.

3. Remove soiling by sliding the blade across the area.

You can obtain glass scrapers and ceramic glass cleaners

which are suitable for glass ceramic, e.g. CERA CLEAN, cera-

fix, sidol for ceran+steel, from your local Hardware Centre.

Cleaning and care

Problem Soils

1. Remove sugar, melted plastic, aluminium foil or other meltable

materials with a glass scraper immediately and while still hot.

Important: There is a risk of burning yourself when the

glass scraper is used on a hot cooking zone!

2. Then clean the hob normally when it has cooled down.

If the cooking zone on which something has melted has already

cooled down, warm it up again for cleaning.

Scratches or dark marks on the ceramic glass surface, caused

by a pan base with sharp edges, cannot be removed. However,

they do not impair the function of the hob.

Since the heat is generated in the pan, food or foodstuffs

possibly on the glass ceramic surface are not burned in as

badly.

Important: Cleaning agents must not come into contact with

the hot ceramic glass surface! All cleaning agents must be

removed with plenty of clean water after cleaning because they

can have a caustic effect when the rings are next heated!

Do not use any aggressive cleaners such as grill or oven

sprays, coarse scourers or abrasive pan cleaners.

Clean the ceramic glass surface after each use when it is warm

to the touch or cold. This will avoid spillages becoming burned

on. Remove scale and

water marks, fat spots

and discolouration with a

metallic shimmer using a

commercially available

ceramic glass or stainless

steel cleaner.
